Chapter 133: The Wilderness (I)
"That's called Hu Lai," Song Jiu said.
"Hugh is talking nonsense!"
Zhao Kuangyi hurriedly summoned the officials, and Song Jiu also left Kaifeng Mansion and ran to the northwest. It's not a joke, I used to have the impression that the Song Dynasty was very conservative, but what was written in the overhead novel was not, so I don't understand. When I came to the Song Dynasty, I realized that Lu Dao was indeed not so conservative, and it could only be said that it was a little introverted, for example, the outside of the summer clothes was a layer of light, very thin, no less than a thin and transparent dress, and the inside was a bright bust. But in order to cover up, some people began to wear some coats, that is, a small light jacket, to play some role in covering up, otherwise the area behind the light is too large.
That's it.
Even Song Jiu hadn't seen a woman with bound feet, all of them were naturally beautiful feet.
However, everyone has a love for beauty, including the old lady on the side of the road with flowers on her head, beating drums and singing songs on the side of the street, attracting laughter from passers-by. There are also some bold women who go on public dates, and then there are willow tops on the moon, and people suddenly look back after dusk, but the person is waiting for beautiful sentences in the lamplight.
Some young couples have a good relationship and openly hold hands and walk on the street.
It was this kind of atmosphere that Pan Li'er had the courage to question him. Relatively speaking, the Pan family is considered to have a strict family style, and some ladies are more courageous.
Wang Jixun led a group of people to rob the beautiful little lady in the Ya internal strife, he would not rush to the river, one northwest, one southeast, robbing so far, it was not the shock of the capital, it was the shock of the whole country. However, who do these soldiers who have been recruited from everywhere know? I don't know myself. What is beautiful, seven points of dress, three points of natural. If Pan Li'er is reduced to a beggar, can she still be called beautiful?
Thinking of this, he hurried to Pan's house. Ask the Pan Weide brothers out and ask about the situation.
Pan Weide shook his head: "Uncle Guo is too nonsense." There are many nobles in Xicheng District, and his subordinates don't care about it. Grab it indiscriminately, and this time Your Majesty will definitely punish you severely. ”
It seems that Pan Li'er was not victimized, otherwise Pan Weide would not be so calm. But there must have been one or two women from noble families who were victimized, which caused public outrage and fed back to Zhao Kuangyin.
After talking to the two brothers for a while, go home.
simply deliberately delayed for two days to see how Zhao Kuangyin handled this matter. Dealt with quickly, Kaifeng Mansion and the forbidden army rushed away, killing more than 100 people. Yan Chenghan, the little yellow door who was in charge of this matter with Wang Jixun, did not report it. There were dozens of rods, and Wang Jixun was demoted to the left and right ranks.
Song Jiu shook his head after hearing this, this kind of disposal is definitely not good, but it is a good thing for himself.
Finally left the capital.
Song Jiu's identity is getting more and more expensive, and there are more people in the yamen who see him off this time. All the way to Nanxun Gate, Song Jiu said: "Everyone, go back, I'll go down and come back soon." ”
"It's a good errand. I want to go too," Fu Zhaoshou said.
"Don't go, if there are no guards, it may not be a good thing to go to Bashu at this time." Song Jiu said cautiously.
Suddenly raised his head. Seeing a carriage stop on the side of the road, Pan Li'er stepped out of the carriage and touched her chest with her hand. He made a gesture. But the action is very neat, when everyone is not paying attention at all. Immediately got into the carriage. The carriage did not leave, and he sat in the middle of the carriage and watched through the curtain.
Song Jiu raised his hand at her, and then said to Gao Qiong and Ge Ba, "Let's go." ”
……
"The front is Niu な water (note), cross this water, go south to twenty miles of the road is Panshi County, either go south to Panshi County for a night's rest, or camp here, you can also see how the people pan for gold, start early tomorrow morning, go to Zizhou City." The little official who accompanied Song Jiu said.
It's still a bitter line of work.
In Song Jiu's mind, there are two Ge Gao, plus thirty light horses, and there should be nothing wrong with coming to Bashu.
And before coming, I inquired about the news, two forces, one is Lu Jia's, after he was defeated, compressed to the Yazhou area, can no longer run to the west, to the west is the Dadu River, and then to the west is the Qiang and Tubo people's residential area.
The second force is the strength of the whole division, compressed to the vicinity of Jintang County, Jianzhou, northeast of Yizhou, and defended according to the danger, only defended, not counterattacked.
But after passing through the Sword Gate, I realized how wrong my thoughts were.
The whole division rebelled, and the people or defeated soldiers participated in the rebellion in Qiong, Shu, Mei, Ling, Jian, Ya, Jia, Dongchuan, Guo, Sui, Chongqing, He, Zi, Chang, Pu, Rong, Rong, that is, more than ninety percent of the areas around Yizhou.
The whole division gathered the army, looked invincible all the way, defeated the Song army many times, and quickly arrived at Xinfan, which was only about 20 miles away from Yizhou at this time. Fortunately, Liu Guangyi and Cao Bin led the troops to break it, and the whole division retreated slightly. At this time, Wang Quanbin and Wang Renzhen had the courage to lead the army to attack, and the whole division was defeated and left Guankou Village. The party scattered Baozhou County.
That is, these dozen states and the Song Dynasty still have not recovered.
Originally, the defeat of the whole division was a good opportunity to annihilate the enemy, but because of the uneven distribution of spoils, disputes arose, and Lu Han and his subordinates rebelled. Han Chongyun didn't say much, he only let Song Jiu understand a general situation, and there was no need to say it.
In fact, the scale of this rebellion was even worse than Song Jiu imagined.
First of all, Lu Han rebelled, and Wang Quanbin did mischief in Liangchuan, not only did the people of Liangchuan hate him, cronyism, and the distribution of spoils, but also accumulated a lot of hatred in the Song army. Seeing Lu Han's rebellion, he commanded Wu Bi to echo with the military academy Sun Jin, killed Zhizhou Wuhuaijie and the capital supervisor Liu Hanqing, and deployed Liu Ze with the whole division, and the army quickly reached 50,000. Then divide the troops into Zizhou and Puzhou, drive away Liu Chuxin, the assassin of Puzhou, and kill Liu Yi. Song Dewei, the captain of Guozhou, and Feng Shaowen, the commander of the school, also echoed the killing of Wang Yongtu, the governor of Guozhou, and Liu Lian, the general of Guozhou, and Wang Keyi, the general of Suizhou, because he had few troops in his hands, so he robbed the people of the state as soldiers and participated in the rebellion.
Cao Bin had no choice but to return to the division, but it was Cao Han who personally commanded the battle. This person is a famous butcher in the history of the Song Dynasty, the battle of Jiazhou, killed tens of thousands of people, Lu Han declined, defeated and fled to Yazhou to protect himself.
But it is not possible to control other areas except these two places. In the vicinity of Yizhou, because of Lu Yuqing's sitting, it gradually regained its vitality, and other prefectures and counties were in chaos, including the Song army, the Song army that continued to discord, the rebellious Song army, the armed forces under the whole division, and the rebel forces that responded to the actual fighting of the whole division, the people from all walks of life who were defeated and scattered, and a large number of displaced people who were also people and bandits. The self-preservation of the people. These forces are not to be underestimated.
The two biggest troubles, one time a rebel force waved the banner of the whole division. Gathered to attack the state city of Jianzhou, and assassinated Zhang Renqian who said that he did not dare to fight. Prepare to abandon the city and flee. Tong judged that Dong Shu did not agree, and led the troops to take the initiative to fight, defeated them, and recruited hundreds of surrendered troops. Zhang Renqian felt ashamed, deliberately drunk Dong Shu, killed hundreds of soldiers, slandered Dong Shuyin and thieves, wrote to the imperial court, and just as the envoy returned to the capital from Jianzhou. Under the edict of the Imperial Historical Observatory, he was deposed as the coach of Songzhou.
Another group of rogues gathered to attack Meizhou, and Zhao Yanjin didn't understand military affairs, but he only saw that the other party didn't know tens of thousands of homeless people, and he didn't know that Lu Dao was actually a rabble, and he only had a few hundred soldiers in his hands, so he couldn't win the fight, and he also wanted to flee to Jiazhou for refuge. Duan Sigong was sentenced to open the official treasury and use official funds as a reward. So the armies fought bravely and drove the outcasts back. Duan Sigong has made a meritorious service, and some people are jealous, saying that he is good at issuing official funds. Please be punished in prison. Zhao Kuangyin did not agree, but replaced Zhao Yanjin as Zhizhou with Duan.
In fact, these sieges and land seizures have nothing to do with the whole division at all. It's all a spontaneous organization of displaced people.
Song Jiu walked out of the sword gate, and after hearing it. You have to be careful.
Ge Ba and Gao Qiong are brave, but they are not really capable of defeating ten thousand with one. If a few thousand homeless people go up and surround it. These thirty-three of them even gnawed off the bones and slag. But when I got here, I had no choice, at least I had to go to Yizhou. This can be said, I have seen it, and I can't think of a way. Lu Xianggong, you are in a high position, you are a famous good official in the Song Dynasty, or you should think about it. can only go around and around, but fortunately, the first line of Puzhou allows Kang Yanze to get through.
Wang Quanbin was uneasy and kind, and only gave 100 people to Kang Yanze to collect Puzhou, which is also the base camp area of the whole division, and the rebels alone reached tens of thousands of people, Wang Quanbin intended to use the rebels' knives to kill Kang Yanze. However, Kang Yanze had his own way, and when he arrived in Jianzhou, it happened that Quan Shixiong was defeated twice, and many of his subordinates fled. Kang Yanze recruited them and allowed them to be innocent, but they must be guilty and make meritorious contributions, and they will not be investigated in the future. Get more than 1,000 rebels and teach them to fight in battle. Then he opened the dial to Puzhou, and Puzhou Liu Ze didn't care, as far as 1,100 people, and 1,000 people were strictly speaking still under his own hands, what harm was there. So he asked his general Shen Diao to lead 5,000 people to fight. was defeated by Kang Yanze, in addition to beheading more than 100 leaders to show the public, the rest were released, with prestige, and 3,000 rebels and homeless people were recruited. It was compiled and advanced into Suizhou, at this time the state city was burned, Kang Yanze set up a fence in the mountain to consolidate itself, and gathered grain in Suizhou.
Liu Ze panicked and personally led 30,000 people to fight, but was defeated. Kang Yanze then advanced into Puzhou, and Liu Ze was forced by the situation to lead the remnants of his troops to defeat and come to Puzhou to surrender.
Otherwise, it is very likely that Song Jiu would not have been able to reach Yizhou.
"Jiang Wenwen, where are you from?"
"Inspector, I am a native of Yizhou, thanks to Lu Xianggong, I will recruit Xiaomin as a clerk."
Generally, Xu officials are divided into five categories, clerical officials, judicial prison officials, account book officials, warehouse clerks, and superintendent escort officials, which can be subdivided into dozens of types. The last four are full of oil and water, but if you don't get it right, you will bear the relevant responsibilities. Only clerical officials have less responsibility, they can also get some oil and water, and even get the trust of officials. This is the most expensive servant.
After Song Jiu arrived in Puzhou, although Yizhou was safe, the most chaotic in the surrounding area was still in Yizhou, Lu Yuqing was afraid of accidents, so he asked this little official to go to Puzhou to greet Song Jiu.
"How many state capitals can the imperial court control now?"
"Except for Yazhou, you can basically control it."
"I'm talking about real control."
"Then, maybe Hanzhong will really control it."
"Yizhou can't do it?"
"Yizhou...... Inspector, you went to Yizhou, and you will know the way when you ask Lu Xianggong. ”
"I know."
Song Jiu said, looking at the Niu Shui on the side, a river that is not very wide, originating from the vast mountains in the distance, maybe some thin gold appeared in those mountains, and with the mountain torrent, some gold sand was washed into this water.
The output is not very much, only a few people are desperate, only come to pan for gold, try their luck, and occasionally get a small amount of gold sand, as fine as bran, so it is called bran. However, it is not too far from Yizhou and belongs to the core area of Bashu.
But because of the war, there is not a single village in sight, just like in the vast mountains and mountains on the south side of Jinghu Lake.
"Where are the gold rushers?"
"Not far away, just a few miles ahead, there is a small grass market with a liquor store. You can eat, you can camp. ”
"Let's go."
The group headed west.
PS: Niu Shui, later called Hexian River Water, southeast of Zizhong County, is now about gone. I don't know what the word appeared in ancient times, the sound ne, no tone. (To be continued......)
